We had a nice stay at Cucuve…great location. Met some lovely Swedish guests, who were relatives of the owners, and they gave us good tips. The hotel has all the amenities and a excellent breakfast made to order, unless Christian is the chef then it will be a struggle.

Cucuve was our home for our first five nights on Santa Cruz Island. Conveniently located just minutes to Charles Darwin Street and lots of shops and restaurants. This was the cleanest and best-managed hotel I have ever stayed at. The manager shows extreme care in every aspect of the hotel maintenance and cleaning. The room was large and comfortable. Laundry service was convenient and inexpensive, but walking across the street will save you 70% if you take the laundry out yourself. Highly recommended!!!!

It was the best hotel on our island hopping trip to the galapagos. It really deserves the four stars! Our room was impeccable, complete and comfortable breakfast, they have a lounge in the restaurant Bahia Mar that’s not open everyday, it was the only disappointment since there is no service at the lounge, we ended up having dinner at the restaurant beside.
